This World Will Pass

Scripture: 1 John 2: [17] The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.

Observation: It is difficult to live in this world and not get enticed by its offerings. I spend too much time thinking and worrying what happens here, instead of focusing on why God has me here. My goal is to do the will of God and He has blessed me with eternal life. Yet I want to do His will to please Him. I’ll never come close giving back what He has given, but I want to live the rest of my life trying.

Application: To remember why I’m here and who my master is. To start each day focused on the reason God has put me here and pray for a clear understanding for God’s will in my life.

Prayer: Thank you Lord for this opportunity to serve you. Open my eyes and guide me on the path you have chosen for me and when the time comes that I may hear the words, “Well done good and faithful servant.”
